"NetFlow Analyzer has helped us reduce the time taken to isolate and contain threats like worms and virus attacks. It has also helped us to solve network incidents faster, and do better capacity planning."

IT administrators throughout the world have grown to realize the importance of monitoring IT networks in real-time. With the ever-growing dependency of various departments of an organization on the IT network, monitoring Cisco routers & switches constantly to ensure that any possible network incident could be prevented..

Monitoring Cisco devices(routers and switches) based on real-time flow data can give you extremely valuable insight about specific kinds of traffic on the network that consume network bandwidth. It also helps in monitoring different critical aspects of the network such as SLAs, QoS etc..

NetFlow Analyzer monitors Cisco routers & switches that are flow-enabled and reports various parameters that are critical to the constant availability and optimum performance of your network. Once the Cisco device starts exporting flows(NetFlow/IPFIX), NetFlow Analyzer mines a wealth of information from these exports about the network and reports extensively on top conversations, protocols, applications and talkers on the network.

Besides traffic analytics, it is possible to monitor the following parameters that are based on different technologies from Cisco for monitoring specific types of traffic such as the following:

NetFlow Analyzer is a NetFlow, sFlow, JFLow (and more) collector and analyzing engine integrated together. NetFlow analyzer is a software (for windows and linux), does not require any hardware probes, which can be downloaded, used in your network environment and can be evaluated for 30 days. Go through the following useful links for better understanding of how NetFlow Analyzer can help you in understanding your network traffic and bandwidth utilization.
